This is my elder son Sean (9), most of the time whee I was online to update my blogs and reply to emails and surfing for new ideas, he will be the one who always come and see whether I have taken a rest, as it will the time he can play online games. Somehow, I do not know how he knew all the Internet surfing and searching as I never taught him, In his school, they only taught him the basic Microsoft office application. Kids, are much more smarter than we think.
Most of the time, when I was online, Sean will sit quietly watching and
sometime asking something when he was not sure what I was doing. And every time when I logged into community sites like MyBloglot, Blogcatalog and some others community sites, he saw his younger brother Maximus’s photo as my avatar and asked how can his photo be shown like his brother on the Internet.
Recently, I joined The ThirtyDays Challenge, and in this challenge Ed-Dale the site owner and
trainer introduce some more Web2.0 sites to do promotion and marketing of this challenge, most of them I was a member and never really involve and do not know much of it features and benefits until this The ThirtyDays Challenge lessons. Since he “complaint” not using his photo on the net, so I decide to use Sean photo as my Avatar in the new Web2.0 sites, like You Tube, Digg, Friendfeed, Twitter etc.
Now here came the problem, after he saw his photo, he told me he didn’t quite like it, could he have like what I did for my blog, and now I realize, he wanted a blog of his own!
As one of Sean aims is to get into the International School when he finishes his primary education, we always told him that he must be good at his language and then he can enter the International School, so what’s better way than training him to write than have his own blog? Here Lady and Gentleman, I have the pleasure to present to you, Sean Journal. Feel free to leave your comment.

What is the challenge, check it out yourself under www.tinturl.com/30dayschallenge and so far I Have learned

2. How to have Better use of Twitter and Twhirl
3. How to make good use of Google Reader (how amazing, never realize so much uses.)and Google Subscribe
4. How to have better use of Stumble, You Tube, Friendfeed
There are still 5 video lessons to go before the challenge started, it really keep me occupied with catching up with all the new gadgets and Web2.0 sites have to offer. For the last couple of weeks, the lessons were really kept me occupied but the effort worth every inch of it. The challenge is FREE for all to join.
I have subscribed to many Web2. 0 site and community site but nenevr really explore what they have to offer and thus never have the thought that many of these sites are a great marketing tools to promote your blogs or sites.
This evening, after watching the FriendFree video which teaches the benefits and features of Firendfeed and the relationship and compatibility with twitter, I received an email which lead me to this interesting gadget for twitter. Have a look,
